Re: Kochs Plan to Spend $900 Million on 2016 Campaign

I paid more in TAXES each quarter than I made in salary-and I was an SES level equivalency

Wait. So journalists who work for news organizations are 'teat suckers', and government employees are taxpayers who don't get their money from taxes.

I don't follow, but I don't think I'm supposed to.

Many Trump supporters have lots of problems, and those deplorables are bringing those problems to us. They’re racists. They’re misogynists. They’re islamophobic. They're xenophobes and homophobes. And some, I assume, are good people.

Oh that is just choice since the left didn't have a problem with the Koch brothers when they donated to their campaigns. Nope not a problem until 2012 when they ceased to fund Democrats. Gee could it be their ever growing anti corporate stance? Their increase in regulations by the bucketful to appease their staunch political donors such as greenie weenies? And the constant mantra of victims in society they conjure up without holding them to any personal responsibility for their feckless choices in life demanding those who did it the right way pay for them too? Why yes it is all pertinent.

I'm just sorry that the Koch brothers stopped at 389 million. I was hoping for a solid 1/2 billion.

See, you call out "left" (presumably insinuating me).
You have no idea. I want to end corporate personhood, I want federally funded elections, I want the Kochs, Soros, everyone ***OUT*** of the election game.

But hey, go on patting your back as a proud patriot while shouting the text I underlined.
